Nope. My Collection, from PlayUSA, is Canadian, and not a word of French in sight; just those pesky little "Canadian Rated PG" stickers you have to peel off.
BTW, has anyone got The Last Days of Pompeii yet? If so, where from? I can only find it at a handful of retailers, mostly Canadian ( Amazon.ca, DVD Import, PlayUSA) and it ain't cheap at any of them! If only DVD Pacific had it up.

Thanks.

It is for me  , on a casual blind buy, and considering DVD Pacific have Son of Kong for £7.51 +p&p, they'd surely have Pompeii for about the same if it was listed. I'd bundle it with another DVD to save postage and not think twice, but I can't bring myself to take a chance on this at £12. I'm not made of money! (takes a quick bite of arm to make sure. Damn.)

Got my tin today from the depot (wouldn't fit through the letterbox) courtesy of PlayUSA. 'Tis a thing of beauty, honestly and now easily the best packaged DVD in my collection. It has got a dent, but only a small one and on the back so no bother. Sorry to all you "non-receivers", but I just had to brag

In the US, Best Buy are doing an 'exclusive' box of the tin version of 'Kong', plus the other two films, and a bonus of five extra 'collectible' postcards - pics here at the HTF, and very nice it is too.
Shame they don't ship outside the States...

A-ha! It's now up at Amazon.com and Axel, so it can't be long before DVD Pacific joins the club with a sub-£10 price, and this will be mine ... all mine, for a decent price. I love it when a plan comes together. *chews cigar*

I've just had an order delay from CD-Wow for the tin 
They say the hope to be able to dispatch it on the 29th.
I'm getting really fed up of these delays, I've had to cancel quite a few things from them lately after havng crazy delays

Indeed John, they shipped my Kong Collection, too!
I have to say, the wait for this particular set was getting a bit unbearable.

Just had a message from CD WOW to tell me that my King Kong special collection edition has shipped
This is going to be nice. The highlight of the year for me
